I would assume that just restoring your new phone from the backup of the old one would set everything back up just like normal.

Hello and welcome YatBob!

There is as you probably know, a dedicated apple watch app that will do exactly that.
Also just backup your 5s and restore the new one with that backup. You'll have no problem IMO

Have a good day!
